Mario Cristobal has done it again on the recruiting trail. This time, flipping Justin Scott from Ohio State to Miami.

The Canes had been in hot pursuit of the five-star DT for some time now, even since his commitment to the Buckeyes back in July. The commitment moves Miami up to the #5 recruiting class in the country. Scott is listed at 6-4, 310 pounds.

This commitment is of extra importance considering the Canes could be set to lose Leonard Taylor to the next level, and Jared Harrison-Hunte is also in the process of making a decision

From the Buckeye's site on Rivals, The Hurricanes continued to recruit Scott and his family and significantly increased their NIL "push" to a level that Ohio State wasn't going to be able to meet and, in this new era of college football, that's the most important thing on the recruiting trail.

We Christmas shopping now.

That’s always the excuse.

Who knows if it’s true, I’d reckon it wasn’t as large of a price discrepancy as they make it out to be. Usually sour grapes.

You know for a fact that reading that article saying Scott called Joe up was a gut punch to the Joe Mob. They were already lining up the "it was all mario" PowerPoint presentation.

Imma be honest brotha. Anything bad said about Joe prior to this flip doesn't matter. I support all flip flopers.

Chicago doesn’t really produce highly ranked kids. Can’t tell you the last time a 5 star and high 4 star came out of the city.

Which is the problem with lots of major cities, especially in the north. Basketball is the number 1 sport by a wide margin, due in no small part to the 100-1 ratio of basketball courts to football fields, and the weather. I grew up 45 minutes from Detroit and it was the same way as Chicago.
My point was simply that when there is a real talent in a large city, we should (and apparently did) target that person(s).
